atm you can access most *.kde.org pages that way, but not all, is that better 
? And for the people translating *.kde.org pages it is much easier if the 
stuff works out of the box without having the need for subdomains, you just 
drop the stuff of an www.kde.?? box and it works. Search engines allready has 
that problem (beside printing, usability and developer I guess) and why 
should users be confused by having 2 urls ?
